Christine Norris hits emotional bottom after two young cousins are removed from her care due to her 'lesbian lifestyle.' She descends into self-destruction, but a wise older neighbor and the neighbor's adult son Seth inspire Chris to become a teacher and later, guardian to the developmentally delayed Seth. Chris falls in love with Delilah and finds her voice as a wife, a teacher, and advocate for children in need of a loving home. Set in rural East Texas, Chris and firebrand Delilah overcome violence, racism, and homophobia to create their own diverse, loving family.
